2. The National Center for Biotechnology
Information advances science and health by
providing access to biomedical and genomic
information.
Website:
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

3. The NCBI is located in Bethesda, Maryland
and was founded in 1988 through legislation
sponsored by Senator Claude Pepper.

4.  Established as the govermment’s response to the need
for more and better information processing methods to deal
with vast amount of data.
 Developed by National librsry of medicine (NLM) at the
National institutes of health (NIH)
 A comprehensive website for biologists including Biology-
related databases.
 Automated systems for storing and retrieval.

5. NCBI along with EBI and CIB Together form international
sequence DatabaseCollaboration which act as the chief
working unit and information center.
NCBI: Has 3 collaborative database.
GenBank
European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) Database
DNA Database of Japan (DDBJ)

7. As a national resource for molecular biology information,
NCBI's mission is to develop new information technologies
to aid in the understanding of fundamental molecular and
genetic processes that control health and disease.

8.  NCBI has been charged with creating automated systems for
storing and analyzing knowledge about molecular biology,
biochemistry, and genetics; facilitating the use of such
databases and software by the research and medical
community; coordinating efforts to gather biotechnology
information .
 Performing research into advanced methods of computer-
based information processing for analyzing the structure and
function of biologically important molecules.

9.  Conducts research on fundamental biomedical problems at the
molecular level using mathematical and computational methods.
 maintains collaborations with several NIH institutes, academia, industry,
and other governmental agencies.
 fosters scientific communication by sponsoring meetings, workshops, and
lecture series.
 supports training on basic and applied research in computational biology
for postdoctoral fellows through the NIH Intramural Research Program

13.  Engages members of the international scientific community in
informatics research and training through the Scientific Visitors
Program.
 Develops, distributes, supports, and coordinates access to a
variety of databases and software for the scientific and medical
communities.
 Develops and promotes standards for databases, data
deposition and exchange, and biological nomenclature.

16. NCBI databases play a
central role in bioinformatics. They offer
scientists the opportunity to access a wide
variety of biologically relevant data,
including the genomic sequences of an
increasingly broad range of organisms.
